Have you played this game with your cat? see if your cat has smarts/ humor ?

Question

I volunteer at a cat house here,and a game I made up

is which hand is the paper ball in ,(or any small ball will do) hold your two hand in front of your cat palm up show him the paper ball ,(them turn both hands so thumbs are up) and slowly throw the ball back and forth, catching it in each hand (the ball is hidden), your cat will follow the ball ,then stop suddenly, the cat will look at the hand he think the ball is hidden ,turn your hand up and show which hand the ball is in,some cats understand the game right away and will look at the hand they belive the ball is in and get excited show emotion,when they win, its fun

Answer 1

Answer 2

LOL! I tried this with my cat and she couldn't stand the suspense and paw at my hand (the one with the hidden ball) right away. Tried again and she just couldn't hold it..had to start swatting at my palm right away and when I place my hand behind my back, she jumped over my shoulder to retrieve it. A really fun game, thanks for sharing!
